Look at that, guys! Two days in a row, it's miracle! This story is just a little mindless fun, based on one obscure line from another of my stories. I had a chuckle while I was writing it and thought you guys might enjoy it too. ~Lou

Summery: It's high time the debate of the century is put to rest. Thunderbird 2 or Thunderbird 4? For Gordon, of course, there's no contest. And he's got the evidence to back it up.

5 Reasons Why Thunderbird 4 Is Infinitely (And Unquestionably) Better Than Thunderbird 2

By Gordon C. Tracy

1. The pilot of Thunderbird 4 eclipses the pilot of Thunderbird 2 on all aspects of the handsomeness scale.

Virgil:

Virgil: What?

Gordon: What "what"? I see no reason for "what."

Virgil: Is "handsomeness" even a word?

Gordon: Doesn't matter my point still stands. Moving on!

2. Yellow comes before green in the rainbow.

Virgil: Since when did the order of the rainbow decide which is the better Bird?

Gordon: Um, since when didn't it?

Alan: Y'know guys, red comes before both green and yellow in the rainbow.

Gordon: Be quiet, Alan, this isn't about you…

3. Thunderbird 4 can go underwater.

Virgil: Thunderbird 2 can fly.

Gordon: Yes and…?

Virgil:

Gordon:

Virgil: You know what? Whatever.

4. Thunderbird 4 is fun-sized.

Virgil: How is this even a reason? If 4 is fun-sized, then 2 is king-sized. How is fun-sized candy better than king-sized candy?

Gordon: I appreciate your input, Virgil, now if I could just get your medical opinion on the matter?

Virgil:

Virgil: I see your point.

+ 1 for Thunderbird 4

5. Thunderbird 4 is a sleek and sophisticated piece of cutting edge machinery; and Thunderbird 2 looks like a green bathtub with wings.

Virgil: She does not! Thunderbird 2-

Gordon: -S'design is completely inferior to the swimming beauty that is Thunderbird 4.

Virgil: How do you even judge something like that? Any of us would say that our own Bird looks the best.

Gordon: Well, this time I'm saying it.

+ 1 for Thunderbird 4

Virgil: Hold up, don't add another point yet. I'm not done-

Gordon: Hush, Virgil. This is the best part!

Final Score-

Thunderbird 4: 5/5

Thunderbird 2: 0/5

Virgil: I demand a recount, this is rigged!

Gordon: You have no proof! I win!

Final Verdict: Thunderbird 4 is better than Thunderbird 2 in every way, shape, and form. And to say anything implying otherwise is both highly unintelligent, and utterly untrue.


Nobody tell Gordon, but my favorite Thunderbird is actually Two. It carries all the equipment and is super versatile, it's crazy fast for it size which is big enough to live in! (I would totally live inside TB2...If it wasn't always getting blown out of the sky and blasted by volcanoes and stuff...) So, which Bird is your favorite?
